The "normal" Guilia's will get a huge bonus in that they'll carry nearly the same weight distribution, similar curb weight and suspension bits as the QV. So dynamically these sedans should be outstanding in their price class ($30-$40k). It's speculated that the U.S. will get the 2.0T as the base engine (like most entry level luxury sedans today), but tuned for North America it'll put out 278 BHP and an unspecified amount of torque (probably near 300 lb.ft). So with RWD and a manual transmission and a curb weight around 3300-3500 lbs. this should be refined but fun car.
